THE Oil COM BINATI0N.
Production To Be Reduced 0ne-Half and Drill
ing to Cease for at Least One Year.

PITTsBURG Nov I.-Concerniug the great
shutdown movement of the oil producers, which
goes into effect to-day, the Oil City Derrick this
morning saws "The most important deal ever
consummated in the history of the oil business

The executive and advisory boards of the Pro-
ducers' Protective Association held two sessions
at the Arlington yesterday afternoon and last
night, and the great shutdown movement was
completed in every detail and the shutdown.
or shut in; will go into effect to-
that all the contracts officially
signed. and nothing remains to be done but to
carry out the provisions of these contracts.
What these contracts are has not been officially
stated. but they contemplate the shutting in
for one year of one-half the production, based
on the gauges of wells during July and August,
the entire stoppage of the drill for the same
length of time. No glycerine is to be used in
the same time, and wells to be cleaned
out. The general feature of the plan is that the
Standard Oil Company has set aside 5000 600
barrels of oil at 62 cents a barrel, the profits
this to be divided among those producers who
shut in their wells and comply with all the terms
of the contracts. In addition to this the Stand
ard and the producers have made pool of
1000. 600 barrels, the profit accruing
from which is to create q was 20 fund for the
vices from producing fields last night were to
the effect that there would be general shut
down Inaugurated to-day. Mr.. Phiips's pro-
life pool in Butler county is to be completely
bridled. In regard to Saxons burg. the purchases
made yesterday of gusner property may be
taken indication that the Producers Pro-
tective Association may be able, in a measure,
to control that field, which is the only one rot
absolutely controlled by the association. All
the big producing firms both Standard and
independent, will shut in their wells"

The Locomotive Engineers.

CHICAGO. Nov. LIN the convention of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, yester-
day, the principal business transacted was the
adoption of the report of the executive commit
tee claims for aid. The amount disbursed
by the brotherhood in this manner amounts to
$4,000 annually. which was the total. very
nearly. of the 120 claims passed for payment
yesterday. These claims from tine families
of disabled and helpless engineers and the wild
owe and orphans of deceased mem bers, for whom
the insurance organization has not afforded re-
lief. In all the sum of 81. 600, 900 has been ex-
pended by the brotherhood since its organization
in the direct relief OF persons of the above class.
The mutual insurance company has paid out, in
addition. over S. .250. 900. as stated in the ad-
dress of the grand chief engineer. The business
of the convention is drawing to a close, but
there remain few important reports to be
ceived and acted on, and the convention may
not be able to conclude its labors to-day as ex-
pected.

Daughter Got Acquainted

Mrs. Van Handt, the mother of Nj
ma Van Zandt, the young girl who
was married by proxy to Anarchist
Spies, stated that the Anarchists still
have hopes OF receiving their free
dom or being granted q rcprieve
"But, said she, "they are in the

nothing that happens in the future
will surprise me-
"Will Miss Nina leave Chicago and
also come to her Pittsburg relatiyes?"
"No. An army of soldiers could not
force Nina to leave Chicago now. She
will remain there with Mr. Spies un-
til the last if the worst comes. Atleast
such is now her firm determination"
Has the truth been published as to
how Miss Nina came to marry Spies?"
"No. 1t is nottrue that she first met
him in the JAIL Mr.. Spies is one of
the brightest and most intellectual
men of his day. He is a gentleman.
Nina was acquainted with him long
before the Anarchists we're arrested.
They would probably have been mar
ried but Mr.. Spies was too poor. He
had mother to support. Nina, per-
haps, would not have married him
when she did, but she was informed
that the new Sheriff would not allow
her to see him and she finally con.
cluded to be welded and then have
the right to be admitted to the Jail.

Frank Leslie's Sunday Maga-
zine For November.

The motto on the cover page of the
November number of Frank Leslie's
Sunday Magazine-a journal Of refn-
ed, useful and interesting literature
is well carried out in the number.
The ARTICLES, long and short, bear this
character. The serious illustrated pa
pers naturally demand the first atten-
ton. "Vesta and the Vestals,' by
Marc F. Va!lette, is very interesting,
and the illustrations picture some re-
cent discoveries in Rome. "Sir Philip
Sidney" by Edmund Gosse, with a
portrait and views of his home at Pen
shurt, is a charming study. The two
long stories are continued and there
are two good short stories. Several
good poems and many short articles
make up an excellent number of this
favorite family magazine.

happy an effect is as valuable as victo-
ry in all aggressive moral struggles.
While we have much to make us re-
joice, the enemy dare not boast. They
stand convicted before the people OF
the State as corruptionists OF the
deepest dye. Through the wholesale
use of rum and imported gold they or
ganized thorough system for the de.
bauchery and purchase of the colored
note, and along these nefarious lines
or work they succeeded. One half of
their vote was a bought vote, purpose
ly planned and boldly executed
They thus crowded the ballot-box with
the voices of vice and ignorance, and
have temporarily overpowered the will
of the best elements in the citizenship
of the state This makes their tri-
umph mockery. 1t cannot and
will not stand. 1t has given new life
to the reform forces and made them
resolve to push the war to final and
righteous triumph. There will be no
compromise, The liquor traffic is
doomed in Tennessee, and the know
ing ones among the opposition see it
and believe it. They will be met upon
the legislative arena and be given a
chance to debauch and buy the Leg
islature. And this they will under
take, but the stern stuff sent thither
will be beyond their corrupting reach.
We tell them in advance that the pro-
hibition army in this State will never
surrender, and the fight will never
cease as long as the saloon has legaliz-
ed life in Tennessee. We are ready

Evil of Indorsing

81 affirm that the system OF indors-
ing is all wrong, and should be utter
ly abolished. | believe that it has been
the financial ruin of more men than,
perhaps, all other causes. think that
our young men especially, should
study the matter carefully in all its
bearings, and adopt some settled
policy to govern their conduct, so as
to be ready to answer the man who
asks them to sign note. What res
possibility does one assume when he
indorses note? Simply this; He
is held for the payment Of the amount
in full, principal and interest, if the
marker of the note, through misfor-
tune, mismanagement or rascality,
fails to pay it. Notice, the indorser
assumes all this responsibility, with
no voice in the management of the
business and no share in the profits
Of the transaction, if it prove profita-
bic; but with certainty of loss if, for
any of the reasons stated, the principal
fails to pay the note. Judge Waldo
